Pours a hazy orange/amber with a medium white head. Aroma has a light maltiness with some yeasty spice...subtle aroma. Flavor is bready...almost rye...grainy with hints of tropical fruit and spice...clovey. mouthfeel is medium and silky...lively...with a spicy/earthy grainy finish.

Pour is a cloudy amber with a large whtie head. Aroma is a nice rye malt with some citrus hops. Flavor is fruity hops with some yeast and a nice spicy rye malt toward the end. Finish is bitter with some honeydew left on the tounge. This is a well made beer as there are many things coming out the please the sences.

On tap at Craftsman Table and Tap - Pours amber with a thin white head. Nose is pretty dry and yeasty, with some light tropical fruit notes and a touch of coriander. Taste is pretty much the same--dry, pale malt, dusty yeast, a bit of oak, and grassy hops, coriander, and light fruitiness. Not astringent, which is nice, and not overly spicy. Pretty jacked up carbonation fluffs up the thinnish body, but it distracts a bit from the beer. Pretty solid.

Pours a hazy orange color with a finger of white head. Interesting nose. Very spicy and fruity. Banana, citrus peel, floral hops, and lots of sweet bread. Tons of lemon peel, too. The flavor is sweet and heavy on the rye. Lots of spicy and citrus peel hops, some floral hops, and a mild bitterness. A hint of grass, very creamy mouthfeel and flavor, and some orange.
